Xiao Zian was the emperor's most beloved son, and everyone in Dongwen knew it. However, because of Xiao Zian's leg disease, the crown prince never paid attention to Xiao Zian, but now...
The prince saw Xiao Zian's words inside and out, showing his closeness to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, and his heart was getting more defensive.
Thinking that Xiao Zian's leg was still healed by Lin Chujiu, the crown prince felt even more depressed, but he still had to win over Xiao Tianyao, and no matter how dissatisfied he didn't dare to vent his anger at Xiao Tianyao.
Thinking of this, the prince looked at Xiao Zian even more unkindly, "Thirdest, haven't you always liked to check things? After so many years in the palace, why haven't you built a listening to the rain pavilion?"
"I just read two more pages of the book, how can I compare with the uncle." Xiao Zi'an was thoughtful, and he didn't understand the target of the prince, but he just told the prince that he had no intention of taking the throne, and I am afraid that the prince would not believe it.
Xiao Zian's concession did not gain the prince's favor. The prince said arrogantly: "You really can't compare with the uncle, what kind of person is the uncle, what kind of person are you. Uncle Huang can go to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, you At the age of thirteen, you can only lie in bed."
…
The prince was aggressive, Xiao Zian's retreat was ineffective, and the two brothers fought tit for tat. Although they didn't quarrel, everyone could see the smell of gunpowder. Xiao Tianyao's eyes were smiling.
He entertained everyone tonight, indeed to support Lin Chujiu, but also to provoke a dispute between the prince and Prince An.
The emperor is too comfortable and needs something to consume his excess energy.
Seeing this scene, what else did Lin Chujiu not understand
She just said, how could Xiao Tianyao have worked so hard to organize a dinner party just to support her. There is support for her, but more is to provoke a dispute between the prince and Xiao Wang.
The prince is just a gun in Xiao Tianyao's hand. The prince himself is not good enough, but with Xiao Tianyao's support behind him, he can completely fight Xiao Zian, and even the emperor.
Lin Chujiu silently lit a row of candles for the prince, and looked at Xiao Zian with sympathy.
Prince An was also unlucky. Before, he had leg problems and could only live in the palace like a crippled person. Now he can walk with great difficulty.
Xiao Zian seemed to notice Lin Chujiu's gaze, and smiled lightly at her, saying that she was fine.
Lin Chujiu nodded lightly, indicating that she understood, and was about to turn around, but found Xiao Tianyao suddenly standing in front of her.
"Prince, Zi'an, this king invited you to come here to enjoy the scenery, not to listen to your debate." Xiao Tianyao said, interrupting the conversation between the prince and Xiao Zi'an.
Anyone with discerning eyes could see that it was the prince who was targeting Xiao Zian, but Xiao Tianyao was playing fifty big boards each, and he was standing on the prince's side, and a surprise flashed in the prince's eyes.
When the prince first targeted Xiao Zian, Ji Fengyu walked out wisely. He was not afraid of getting his clothes wet, he went back and forth around the listening rain pavilion, and when Xiao Tianyao stopped him, he walked in quickly, as if he did not know the pavilion. What happened inside, he said with a look of amazement: "Your Majesty's Tingyu Pavilion has organs everywhere, it's really ingenious."
In one sentence, the embarrassment between the crown prince and Xiao Zian was subtly resolved. The seventh prince, who had not spoken all the time, also said excitedly: "Is there a mechanism here? Why can't I see it?"
The seventh prince has been obediently not interrupting since he came in, even though he knew that Xiao Tianyao had caused the quarrel between the prince and Xiao Zian, but the seventh prince thought he didn't know, and looked ignorant like a child.
When Ji Fengyu saw the Seventh Prince asking, he immediately said: "The mechanism above the pavilion and the water tank outside the pavilion are all carefully designed, and the speed and time of each drop have been calculated." To let the rain fall in rhythm, It's not a simple matter. Listening to the rain pavilion has hundreds of mechanical buckles, large and small, which is by no means comparable to the imitation of Wanfuyuan.
Ji Fengyu's words of praise fell, and he saw Lin Wanting changed from her previous loneliness. She pointed to the river not far away, and shouted happily, "Look at it, look at you, it's so beautiful..."
"What?" Hearing Lin Wanting's words, the prince turned his head to look, and saw a lot of lotus lanterns suddenly floating on the river not far away.
This river surrounds Tingyu Bieyuan, and the section in front of them is exactly the arc of the turn. One by one lotus lanterns float on the river, as if the stars are dotted with the Milky Way, which is very beautiful...
"Wow... Uncle, you are so beautiful." The seventh prince shouted happily, with the liveliness and innocence he should have at his age.
Ji Fengyu and Xiao Zian also praised him.
The lotus lanterns floating with the water flow flickering in the dark, making people unable to take their eyes off.
"Does it look good?" I don't know when, Xiao Tianyao stood behind Lin Chujiu, and others looked at it as if Xiao Tianyao was holding Lin Chujiu from behind.
"Good-looking." Lin Chujiu said a little stiffly.
"Just like it." Xiao Tianyao's voice was so low that only the two of them could hear it.
"Your Highness..." The two were too close, and as soon as Xiao Tianyao spoke, there was a hot breath on the back of his neck, which made Chu Jiu not used to it, but there was a railing in front of her, and she had no way to go.
"Huh?" Xiao Tianyao responded, and the ending was very long, with an indescribable intimacy.
Lin Chujiu's back froze, and the words changed to, "It's getting late, should we go back?"
"Tired?" Xiao Tianyao asked softly, and without waiting for Lin Chujiu to answer, he said to the prince, Xiao Zian and others, "This king has arranged accommodation for you. I went back to rest. This king is sorry."
After finishing speaking, he dragged Lin Chujiu out and walked out, not conscious of being the master at all.
The prince and Xiao Zian looked at the figure of Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu walking side by side, and the corners of their mouths twitched...
Uncle Huang, did you call us here just to see the love between your husband and wife
As soon as Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu left, the atmosphere in the pavilion immediately cooled down, and the prince made no secret of his disgust for Xiao Zian.
The seventh prince sighed inwardly, stepped forward in resignation, and said to the prince, "Brother Prince, I'm tired. Shall we go back to rest?" He always felt that the prince would not easily let the prince go. Take advantage.
"Okay." The prince nodded and looked at Lin Wanting instinctively, just as he was about to say to send Lin Wanting back, the seventh prince said first: "Brother Prince, the uncle has arranged for a servant. Second Miss Lin is a female copy, and we don't know where she lives. Easy to get there.”
The prince had no choice but to dispel this idea and go back with the seventh prince.
After getting along with him tonight, Ji Fengyu has a general understanding of the situation of the Dongwen royal family. Knowing that Xiao Zian is a smart person, he did not hide his thoughts of interacting with him. He said to Xiao Zian, "Brother Zian, shall we go back too?"
"Okay." Xiao Zian did not reject Ji Fengyu's kindness.
He had no intention of fighting for the throne, but he did not intend to lose his life. The prince regarded him as a thorn in his side and a thorn in the flesh, and he always had to be on guard.
He and the Crown Prince, in the end, fought as King Xiao wanted...
